Static. Your body is foreign territory.

PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE is a cozy-meets-creepy puzzle game about communicating with people you don't understand.

College grad Louis has just moved back to his childhood home, but things seem worse this time around. He's chronically ill, struggling to find adequate healthcare, and can't seem to recognize the streets he was raised on. When he is attacked by a mysterious entity, communicating only through a cassette player, he must consult with it and the other townsfolk to discover the true nature of the assault.
